Where's the photo of Daschle on the milk crate?

"The Bush Team had a secret "Plan B" that, had the diminutive Dukakis insulted the 6'+ Bush too much or scored too many "points", the latter would step out from the podium and walk over to stand side-by-side with tiny Mikey, in a symbolic "challenge". The electorate could make their own conclusions."

Algor tried this in the '00 debates with W. Remember W's bemused nod of acknowledgment? Made Gore look like a big-assed bird, standing there without a forest to blend into.

If someone can grab a clean shot of Bradley at the podium, and put it side by side with Dean in the same spot, you can use the stripes on the flag to line them up and get a side by side shot. If you can do it seamlessly, that would be cool.

Or you could just use Photoshop to create the image in your mind:

Has Rush really been reduced to complaining about creative use of podium risers? SOP for these kind of events is to try to keep everybody looking about the same height. Big whoop.

[NeoCaveman]

It's not about Israel either... anyone know why this is showing up with Israel as a topic?

It also has Japan as a topic. Why, I have no idea.

Dean probably doesn't appreciate Rush writing about his shortness. I could care less, but this is another example of why Democrats and prosecutors in Florida are salivating about paying Rush back for being a druggie. This article is a meaningless, unnecessary, gratuitous attack.

[cyborg]

How dare you use pornospeak to lure the FR horny brigade to your thread! DECEIVER...

[discostu]

It just seems to me that his attacks used to be at least interesting. Hitting them for a minor use of stagecraft is like complaning about actors using tape to know where to stand.

How right you are, and Democrats are going to make Rush squirm and suffer for being a druggie because, as you know, payback is a b*tch.

[discostu]

And of course now the Dems have an excuse to hammer on any minor piece of stagecraft Bush uses during the election. What a brilliant plan.

[dennisw]

So Howard Dean is shrimp? Look at all the damage Napolean did.

Some may not realize how important the height angle is, pun intended. I recall in the 80s reading that the taller candidate always wins. Big issue.

[Dr. Scarpetta]

When Pres. Bush came to my area in 2000, I shook his hand at the Holiday Inn in Bethlehem, PA. Our current pres is of average height, not tall. I went to see his father, the former pres, speak at Muhlenberg College during the campaign. The former pres is a VERY TALL person.

I also went to Rush's tv show in NYC back in the early 90's, and he's of average height. People cannot help how tall or short they are; it's irrelevant.

[discostu]

Reviewing the pictures I've discovered another diabolic deception by those dastardly Democrats (alliteration courtesy of Stan Lee, comic books rot the mind indeed): they've carefully selected ties that pull color from the flag being used as a backdrop thus keeping them from clashing and looking out of place. Somebody send this info to Rush right away!

Ever since the McNabb incident I'm having a harder and harder time taking Rush seriously. Not that I disagreed with him, but he promised to keep politics out of it and failed, that really disappointed me. And most of his actions since (at least the ones that pinged on my radar) have continued in that direction.

IMO, his judgement is screwed up, as well as his life in general.

[GraniteStateConservative]

I think that's kind of a dumb thing to care about. It makes Rush sound small (pun intended).

[ConservativeMan55]

LOL!

[ConservativeMan55]

It was just a side commentary. Its just something he observed. He didn't spend 2 hours talking about. If you had listened today you would have noticed that he spent 2 hours on immigration.
